Middle East producer QatarEnergy is mulling ordering another tranche of up to 20 LNG carrier newbuildings worth about $5bn to add to the 122 it has already secured under its massive shipbuilding project.
Those following the business closely said QatarEnergy is still hungry for additional extra-large vessels of its new 271,000-cbm Qatar-China-Max (QC-Max) design, of which it has already secured 18 newbuildings.
